I love navy and black. Especially together.
This is my favourite outfit of the moment!
...and it starts with these. HELLO BABIES.
Agessss ago I won a competition with Upper Street Shoes to design my own pair of shoes - and here they are! I went for navy snakeskin and suede with studs in a classic court shape. This is a shape I'm really loving at the moment and I always love navy blue. I'm thinking I'll get a lot of wear outta these! I lovelovelove them and the whole experience of designed with Upper Street was incredible. I would highly recommend them if you can't find the shoes you dream of!

This vintage silk shirt from my favourite shop in Camden is getitng a lot of wear at the moment, as is the Timex watch that was given to me after my shoot with Jackie Dixon (which you can see here!) And I really think that these Marks & Spencer black ankle lengths are the perfect modern version of the classic black trouser.
And the finishing piece: the Marni for H&M jacket that I am besotted with. It was the only piece that I reeeeeally wanted from the whole collection and I managed to find it in the sale - the only one! - at Westfield while shopping with my girl Jet. (Sorry I grabbed it first, J!)
It was FIFTEEN POUNDS. It was FASHION FATE.
Seriously: I had to Instagram (amywolfwhistle!) the tag in sheer disbelief. IT WAS 90% OFF.
And, if I've put you in the mood for some navy and black - and maybe a bargain or two of your own! - here are my six sales picks...
Neoprene skirt // H&M £15
Court shoes with metal heels // New Look £20
Navy blue ankle length trousers // H&M £6.49 (!)
Black drape front mac // Topshop £40
High shine black shopper // Boohoo £25
Drop waist neoprene dress (I like neoprene!) // Dorothy Perkins £17
Think I look like the world's cheesiest catalogue model in that first photo? (I do.)
Think black and navy are the most boring colours ever? (My mum does.)
Let me know in the comments - I've got thick skin!
